Waterton-Glacier Sunrise(Waterton-Glacier National Park, Alberta & Montana) Waterton-Glacier is the world’s first International Peace Park and contains over 18,000 square miles. Just down the hill from the Prince of Wales Hotel, I arrived about 45 minutes before sunrise to capture this photograph as the storm rolled in. I had my camera on a tripod out on a dock and waited as the colors developed. I decided to try again the following morning at the same spot and learned a very valuable lesson that second morning: After an hour on the dock two women came running up to me and asked, “Didn’t you see the bear?” I said, “What bear?” They said, “The one that walked six feet behind you…..” I now look around to see the rest of what is happening in my environment, even if I am focused on one particular shot.
